Overview

The Random Number Generator (BA431) is an essential IP core for all FPGA and SoC designs that target cryptographically secured applications.The BA431 includes a True Random Generator (TRNG) as the source of entropy.The optional Deterministic Random Bit Generator (DRBG) can be provided with the core.The entropy source and theDRBG are designed for compliance with the NIST 800-90A and NIST 800-90B draft.It is easily portable to any Intel® FPGA device (including SoC). The IP core successfully passes NIST 800-22 and AIS31 test suites and has already passed FIPS 140-2 certification.

Features
